Covid 19
The Bridge for Heroes has continued to provide support to Veterans in need throughout the COVID-19 pandemic and has been a lifeline for many who, due to the restrictions placed on both local and national services, were unable to receive help elsewhere.
This is Richards story:
Army veteran Richard came to our attention in April, following requests for us to provide him with support from his line manager and a local authority councillor, who sought our help for Richard as, due to unprecedented demand on services caused by the Covid-19 pandemic and restraints placed by ‘lock-down’, the council homeless department were unable to provide assistance.
